This week, my swoon is from Heart of Iron by Ashley Poston!

Then she leaned forward, and he made a move to try and catch her, worried she was falling -

She pressed her lips against his. They were warm and soft. It was like the kiss from Astoria, a second, a moment, a breath - 

One point three seconds - and gone.

"Oh, Goddess!" she gasped, pulling away, leaving the tingling, electric sensation against his lips. "I'm so sorry. I didn't mean... that was... I didn't -"

He wrapped an arm around her waist and pulled her into another kiss, and she melted into him, pressing as close as she could, and still he wanted to be closer. Her fingers threading into his hair, his around her waist, moving, exploring. Calculations had no room here, probability and chances washed away to a deeper longing. His tongue traced the contour of her lips, memorizing her taste, her motion, her method. The kiss lit a million suns in between his zeroes and ones, and made him infinite.
